For those of you who are enjoying the French Open right now, you might be disappointed that Murray or Federrer have been knocked out. You could be happy that Nadal is still in though (at least he is while we're writing this!) Anyway, it's also very likely that you'll be aware of a man that goes by the name of Bjorn Borg. If you don't know who he is, have a little look at our link there. The man was, and still is, an absolute legend in the tennis world. And, he was a sharp off the court as he was on it. That includes his dress sense too. Sponsored by Fila, there were a number of jackets designed for Borg that have now become collectors items that swap hands for silly prices. One of those jackets is the classic Fila Settanta jacket. The originals, as we said, are likely to cost you an arm and a leg and they're probably looking a bit rough round the edges, maybe a little hole here or there. But the lovely people at Fila have decided to relaunch the jacket over 30 years after it was first released. Get your hands on a piece of sporting history. It looks good, it feels good and anyone who knows a little about tennis history will immediately double take and no doubt pass comment about your hot new jacket. Zip thru, with classic Fila fob, two pockets, ribbed cuffs, collar and hem with stripe detail and the classic Fila applique logo to the left. It's as good today as it was back then. Available in kelly green and navy, two great summer colours, these will work well with plain crew neck tees and jeans or shorts, or even a nice short sleeved shirt or polo. And, at only £65, it's an absolute bargain compared to what you might pay for the original thing.
